Board of Directors and Leadership

The Florida Association of Veteran Owned Businesses is lead by an active Board of Directors who volunteer their time and talents to ensure FAVOB pursues its Vision and achieves its Mission.

Board members are instrumental to both the goverance and operations of FAVOB.  Many volunteer their services such as marketing, accounting, IT, and legal to provide needed operational resources.

Board Meetings are held every third Monday of the month and members are encouraged to attend.

FAVOB is led by an Executive Staff Leader and teams of volunteer leaders across Florida.
